Me 20 year old "top of duh line" for duh day, computer has told me, he will be
retiring to the TV room to become a multimedia machine and complain about how
bad television has become.
So it's time to build a new one.
I have all the parts save for one.
I want to use a soundblaster audigy like card (the one in the old geezer is 32
bit pci), I need one that will fit a modern slot.
Has anyone any experience with a good SB audigy like card? Definetly want to
stay with soundblaster.
I would like the collective's input. No banana bread recipes please.
Kate

Hahaha :D I was looking recently for replacement to the Popcorn Hour A100 -
I found there is Popcorn Hour 500. I was surprised by the price, so I keep
the A100 for a while.
If you ask me that's the best - I mean you can find C-200 or something
similar used (just saw one for 135 US$ on ebay).
I'm just saying it because it is not a banana recipe :D and has a decent
audio. It would save also much power and has a remote control.
And you are right - TV has become unbearable, or I am getting old or both :D

Nik, we are either old and trend setters.

I want to use a soundblaster audigy like card (the one
in the old geezer is
32 bit pci), I need one that will fit a modern slot.
Creative still produces sound
blasters:
https://us.creative.com/p/sound-blaster/sound-blaster-audigy-fx
Though nowadays the internal sound cards have mostly disappeared. Onboard audio on modern
motherboards is of very high quality, and people needing professional-level audio quality
tend to
go for external sound cards (for reasons I never managed to figure out).

Hi Janek
This was actually the card I was looking at.
The reason I don't want to use the onboard audio is they have limitations when
it come to recording from certain sources. Some mic, phonographs, cassette
tapes etc. I can use audio tools available through linux but they don't work
as well with onboard audio.
It's the middle group between pro gear and oem. The best of both worlds.
Thanks for your input.
